Which villager do you think is apart of the LGBT+ Community?

Ugh, this thread makes me wish we had a dislike button- not for all the people posting their opinions on which ones they see as LGBTQ+ but for the ones saying none of them can be (and getting likes for it, ugh).

I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't think Nintendo intended any of them to be gay (not even Flick and CJ- I once saw someone post on another site that people denying them being gay was "gay erasure" and... no, that's ridiculous- they're video game characters and partner has multiple definitions). But what Nintendo DID intend, with literally every character, was for us to see them how we want to see them. And fill in the blanks as we please. Each villager has a very basic personality template that allows the player to fill in any details as to who EXACTLY they are. If they want to see some as LGBTQ+, they can. If they don't, that's fine. If I want to pretend Vic is a retired viking, then he is! If Julia is trans in my mind, she is! And both will be that in my game and, when I talk to them, I will see them as much. If you don't want to see them as that way? You don't HAVE to. But respect that I do, and it enhances my enjoyment of the game. And, again, don't get me wrong- I'd love to see Nintendo introduce some confirmed LGBTQ+ characters. But, until then, everyone's allowed to use their imaginations to play as they see fit.

And, MOST importantly- if people feel more seen and represented by imagining certain characters in certain ways I WILL NOT deny them that right, and it's stupid to fight people on it. Play the game how you want to play, but don't force your opinions on others.
That being said, Julia is a LITERALLY a male peacock, and I love her.

Okay... the real question. Who is most likely NOT to be LGBT out of my future villagers? LOL. I'm gonna try get Octavian to date Julian since they both have space houses! I'm thinking about booting Bob & Judy for Francine & Chrissy but idk 😭

Edit: the rabbits are sisters SJSJSHSHDHDHSH guess I won't ship them ☠️

I don’t often think of the villagers as having any sort of orientation but there are some that stand out to me :) (after finishing this list I guess I can’t say I don’t think about it often)

Raymond and Marshal:
I had Marshal in new leaf, and got gay vibes from him then and again when I invited him in new horizons. I always saw Raymond with Marshal when I had Raymond on my island, and I thought they looked really cute together <3

Julian:
Had him in new leaf, and he just gave me gay vibes. I don’t remember shipping him with anybody though. I guess I saw him as more independent

Nan and Chevre:
Best friends and soul mates. The most perfect pair of lesbian goats ;-; I have them now, and I’ll never let them go <3 they must be together

Tasha:
I have her now and she just gives me bi vibes. I don’t ship her with anyone tho, I also see her as more independent

Audie:
I got the prog rock letter from her and would see her as lesbian except I also thought she and Fang spent a lot of time together in a couply way, so I see her as being bi but also not needing to be attached to a single person

Deirdre:
Had her in new leaf and she gave me lesbian vibes. I don’t remember shipping her with anyone though

Tangy:
I have Tangy now, and I see her as asexual. Probably because she is an orange, but that’s just how I feel :)

Ursula:
Ursula was one of my starters and I also see her as asexual

Blathers:
Another villager I see as asexual, he just has a passion for knowledge and museum curating. I don’t think romance is out of the picture for him, but I don’t see him seeking anything out

Julia:
I’ve never had her, but she’s clearly a trans woman :)

I’m surprised how many villagers orientations I actually have opinions about lol if I think of more I’ll post again

edit: I can’t believe I forgot Flick and CJ the most obvious gay couple <3 they’re so wholesome ;-;

I've never really liked the idea that all uchis are lesbians since that seems a bit like stereotyping to me. Especially being a straight woman who is pretty much a real life uchi, having a lesbian friend in real life who is pretty much a snooty (the new classy ones, not the old mean ones). I think some of them definitely are though.

Merengue gives me lesbian vibes. I dunno who I would pair her with though, I'll have to think about that ❤️
 
I see a lot of Nan and Chevre! Do they really have photos of each other in their houses? That's so cute! I'd love to see pics of this if anyone has any ^_^.

As for the topic, I never really thought about it to be honest.. the only one I've ever been sure of is Julian lol. I'll have to go through my amiibo collection and think about them all one of these days! I'm thinking maybe Hazel can be a lesbian? She's so cute 🐿

i dont have many headcanons but one of them is that during her time at school tangy had a huge crush on an alternative girl named debbie. who exactly is debbie? i have no idea. but tangy gave me this letter:
View attachment 346005
i thought it was really cute. i see debbie being some kind of uchi villager.

That's actually really neat, but to be honest, I think that letter can potentially be sent from any peppy in the game.
 
hmm...based on headcanons that have emerged from how they've interacted with each other on my island, I'd say:

bi/pan: kyle, fuchsia, pinky, me lol
nonbinary: fang

lily's always complimenting opal too, which is very cute...round green gfs?

yea i know that the letter isnt unique and any peppy can send it to you, its just a personal headcanon that tangy was the one who wrote it. i also think it fits her as she is one of the few peppies with the music/sing hobby.

Lily and Opal awhwhwh, idk why that makes me so happy but it really does 😭💕
 
I actually really wanna type out some of my headcanons for all the villagers I like/have experience with off the top of my head:

Audie - bi/pan (female lean, but loves everyone and anyone no matter identity !)
Whitney - very soft femme lesbian
Cherry - she's a goth lesbian duhh
Barold - a Gay man<3
Marshal - demisexual/demiromantic
Dom - trans man :3c
Genji - genderfluid + def dated Dom when he was on my island!
Tipper - lesbian cow lesbian cow lesbian cow
Merengue + Renee - femme and butch lesbian couple uwu
Flick - I see as asexual!
Fuchsia + Pashmina - very big lesbians aaaaaa
 
I don't have many so far but I definitely enjoy seeing everyones thoughts and headcannons!

Mine are :
  • CJ and Flick are currently dating!
  • Flick is Nonbinary and uses he/they pronouns. He's bi cause I'm self projecting.
  • I can see CJ being gay and possibly trans.
  • Tom Nook and Redd are exes.
  • Julian is not straight™
  • Apple is bi because I love her
  • Diana is a lesbian
  • Label is asexual and maybe biromantic, again I'm projecting
  • Amelia is an older lesbian
  • Gracie is trans
  • Muffy is a cool goth lesbian
  • Muffy and Judy are dating

Yessss join me on the Muffy/Judy ship 💜💜💜 Aesthetic girlfriends 🥰
 
After barely acknowledging each other for the past few months, my Julian and Pietro are now hanging out and talking all the time ;w; I think they were in competition over who was my island's most aesthetic queer but now they're either best friends or dating 🥰
 
I had a really cute screenshot of Genji and Kabuki together. I'm pretty bummed I can't find it. In any event, they're def a couple in my town and I have their houses side by side.
I second Katt being a part of LGBTQ+. Her and Tabby I like to think are together and supporting each other's music/idol ambitions. Their personality differences have a very Shizuma/Aoi (strawberry panic) feel.

Animal Crossing has always included romanticism in their series especially with the whole Pelly and Pete character history. Not to mention some of the dialogue from multiple villager types but especially smug. We also have Reese and Cyrus and their whole anniversary shoot.

So avoiding the idea of love and romance has never been a goal of AC. It's reasonable and fair to see people develop backstories and relationships between their villagers in their town. It's perfectly reasonable for people to also not partake in feeling that way, however,...this is a topic obviously designed and targeted for LGBTQ+ representation. So, it's important to ask what do you have to contribute and also how you choose to word what you contribute since representation for LGBTQ+ issues are already so lacking.

The last time this topic emerged one user shared beautiful fan art of Katt and Tabby as a couple. With Katt as a long-term resident on my island I've been considering seeking out Tabby specifically because of it.
